Microsoft Research TechFest

Duncan Mackenzie (on the Channel 9 team), provides a pointer to the first of a number of video interviews by Rory Blythe with some MSR folk covering the Microsoft TechFest event happening this week at the Redmond Campus:

"Every year at Microsoft there is a little internal-only conference where Microsoft Research (MSR) shows off their projects. It is very cool but very private (badges checked at the door, etc...). Well, this year it is a bit different... For MSR TechFest 2007 they've allowed folks to come in and interview the researchers, take pictures/video, whatever... crazy stuff and you get to see the results first on Channel 9."

Mary Jo Foley is covering the TechFest over at her ZDNet blog, while Joshua Allen has a little more info on the two projects Rory focusses on in the first video, DynaVis and FASTDash.
